The principles and practice of a methodology of cell cycle analysis that allows the estimation of the absolute length (in units of time) of all cell cycle stages (G1, S, and G2) are detailed herein. This methodology utilizes flow cytometry to take full advantage of the excellent stoichiometric properties of click chemistry. This allows detection, via azide-fluorochrome coupling, of the modified deoxynucleoside 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EDU) incorporated into replicated DNA through incremental pulsing times. This methodology, which we designated as EdU-Coupled Fluorescence Intensity (E-CFI) analysis, can be applied to cell types with very distinct cell cycle features, and has shown excellent agreement with established techniques of cell cycle analysis. Useful modifications to the original protocol (Pereira et al., Oncotarget, 8:40514-40,532, 2017) have been introduced to increase flexibility in data collection and facilitate data analysis.

Quantitative Live Imaging Reveals Phase Dependency of PDAC Patient-Derived Organoids on ERK and AMPK Activity.

Patient-derived organoids represent a novel platform to recapitulate the cancer cells in the patient tissue. While cancer heterogeneity has been extensively studied by a number of omics approaches, little is known about the spatiotemporal kinase activity dynamics. Here we applied a live imaging approach to organoids derived from 10 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients to comprehensively understand their heterogeneous growth potential and drug responses.

The colonial system of integration (CSI) provides intracolonial nutrient supply in many gymnolaemate bryozoans. In Ctenostomata, its presence is known for species with stolonal colonies, for example, vesicularioideans, but its structure is almost unexplored. The CSI is thought to be absent in alcyonidioideans and other ctenostomes.

Testicular ageing is accompanied by a series of morphological changes, while the features of mitochondrial dysfunction remain largely unknown. Herein, we observed a range of age-related modifications in testicular morphology and spermatogenic cells, and conducted single-cell RNA sequencing on young and old testes in Drosophila. Pseudotime trajectory revealed significant changes in germline subpopulations during ageing.

Aging is accompanied by multiple molecular changes that contribute to aging associated pathologies, such as accumulation of cellular damage and mitochondrial dysfunction. Tissue metabolism can also change with age, in part, because mitochondria are central to cellular metabolism. Moreover, the cofactor NAD, which is reported to decline across multiple tissues during aging, plays a central role in metabolic pathways such as glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and the oxidative synthesis of nucleotides, amino acids, and lipids.

Background: Cisplatin (DDP) resistance has long posed a challenge in the clinical treatment of lung cancer (LC). Insulin-like growth factor 2 binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) has been identified as an oncogenic factor in LC, whereas its specific role in DDP resistance in LC remains unclear.
Results: In this study, we investigated the role of IGF2BP2 on DDP resistance in DDP-resistant A549 cells (A549/DDP) in vitro and in a DDP-resistant lung tumor-bearing mouse model in vivo.
